Title: Index handling method and apparatus for a data de-duplication system
Filed: 2011-08-10
Abstract: A data de-duplication system includes a data manager (12, fig. 1) for storing data blocks (40) in a memory 14 and an index for identifying which data blocks are stored in the memory (16) e.g. a sparse bitmap. The index includes chunks (22) e.g. of bits r corresponding to hash values of given data blocks, and a chunk allocation record (30) is provided which has a record of entries (32). Each record entry being associated with a range of data values that are associated with the data blocks, and being configurable to identify a respective chunk in respect of a received data block. The data manager refers to the record entry associated with the range of values in which the data value for the data block falls, and in the event that the record entry does not identify any of the chunks, selects one of the chunks, configures the record entry to identify the selected chunk, configures the selected chunk to identify the data value for the data block, and stores the data block in the memory. In the event that the record entry does identify one of the chunks, the data manager determines if the identified chunk is configured to identify the data value, and upon determining that the identified chunk does not identify the data value, configures the identified chunk to identify the data value for the data block, and stores the data block in the memory, and upon determining that said identified chunk does identify the data value, does not store the data block.

Patent GB-201306729-D0 (GB)
Title: Determination of receiver path delay
Filed: 2013-04-12
Abstract: This application is concerned with determining the internal delay within a receiver. It finds particular application in position locating devices, such as are used in OTDOA or GPS systems. The delay value can be used to correct time based positional measurements and thus improve accuracy. The correction may take place at the receiver, or alternatively delay information may be transmitted to a network element to permit correction external of the receiver. The invention involves causing a temporary signal level variation at a start point element of a receiver path, detecting the temporary signal level variation at an end point clement of the receiver path, and determining the time taken for a signal to travel from the start point to the end point. The signal on which the signal level variation is imposed may be a test signal generated within the receiver, a signal generated by a local transmitter, or an external signal such as a signal from a cellular network or a satellite. The signal level variation may be generated by controlling the switching of a connection state of an antenna, or by adjusting the gain of an amplifier or attenuator.

Title: Cryogenic cooling apparatus and method such as for magnetic resonance imaging systems
Filed: 2013-05-17
Abstract: A cryogenic cooling apparatus 100 has a supply gas line 3A and a return gas line 3B coupled to a compressor 1 driven by a motor 8. A coupling element 4, such as a rotary valve, is able to provide gas flow between the compressor and a two-stage mechanical refrigerator 2 via the supply and return gas lines, and the pressure of the supplied gas is modulated by the coupling element in a cyclical manner. A sensing system 6 is used to monitor the operational state of the refrigerator and a control system 5 modulates the frequency of the cyclical gas pressure supplied by the coupling element in accordance with the monitored operational state. The refrigerator second cooled stage can be thermally coupled with an object to be cooled (103 Fig 2), and a selectively coupleable thermal link (110 Fig 2), for example a heat pipe, allows thermal coupling of the refrigerator first and second cooled stages (101, 102 Fig 2) depending upon the operational state of the refrigerator. A method of use of the apparatus is also disclosed, and the apparatus and method have particular application in a Magnetic Resonance Imaging system.

Title: Hand-held tag detector
Filed: 2009-12-08
Abstract: An electronic article surveillance (EAS) tag detector and deactivator comprises a signal generating circuit for generating a detection signal and a deactivation signal, and an antenna arrangement for transmitting the signals. The detection signal comprises a group of at least three bursts, where pairs of bursts are separated by time intervals which differ from each other. The signal generating circuit comprises a capacitor arrangement and an oscillator, where a low voltage battery charges the capacitor arrangement to a high voltage through the oscillator. The deactivation signal is generated by discharging the capacitor arrangement through the antenna. The detector may additionally comprise a detector circuit for receiving a reradiated signal from the tag, and comparing it to a reference. The time intervals of the detection signal may each be less than an electrical mains signal period, with their sum being greater than the electrical mains signal period. The format of the detection signal reduces interference between the tag detector and mains operated EAS equipment.
